did the italians did anything after the rome empire
i feel like theyre good for nothing

Renaissance?
The discovery that F = ma (confirmed by Galileo droppin two steel balls of uneven mass from the Tower of Pisa)?
The invention of the radio?
The calculations behind the first atom bomb (done by Enrico Fermi for the Manhattan Project)?
Gucci, Fendi, Prada, Dolce&Gabanna, Armani?
Spaghetti Western films?
Italian brainrot videos?

they did everything, but just because they werent a single unified state the spotlights of europe were stolen by france , england and spain

Not a good thing.

finding how things works is not bad, using it to kill people was the bad thing

if i had to sacrifice 10 million algerian "people" to create another masterpiece like birth of venice or the miraculous catch id do it in an instant

Cope, Galileo only tested what we would today formulate as
mg = ma
The actual definition of force is due to Newton. You could have named a gazillion Italian scientists from Lagrange to Rovelli if you actually knew your shit.

idk. The only Italian scientists I can recall off the top of my head are Alessandro Volta and Evangelista Torricelli.
Also, Cardano was from present-day Italy too.
